Observations

There are 1,689 observations in the data. Of these, 360 appeared to have reversed latitude and longitude coordinate values (which were corrected). 3 observations appeared to have clearly erroneous coordinate values, and 1 observation was missing one or both coordinate values. These observations were removed. After removal of the observations with missing or erroneous coordinates, there are 1,685 remaining (mapped below).

Observations by Parish

The observations were converted to a spatial data format using the GPS coordinates of the residence. This conversion allowed the data to be overlain with a spatial data layer containing the boundaries of the Uganda's parishes. The parish recorded at the visit was compared to the GIS-derived parish, and the agreement between the two are presented below.

Immunization Summary

Of the 1,685 observations, 1,135 had their vaccination card and 540 did not have their vaccination card. 10 of the observations were missing this information. This information is mapped below.

Specific Vaccines Summary

For each specific vaccine (and dose, when appropriate), we calculated the percent coverage (only for children with a card). Some observations were missing data, which we treated as "not" covered in the estimates below. Overall, the coverage percent (in this group) was quite high.

Vaccine Administered Not Administered Unknown Covered % (known)
Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) 1132 1 2 99.74
Polio (OPV) 1133 1 1 99.82
Pentavalent (DPT-HepB-Hib), Dose #1 1132 2 1 99.74
Pentavalent (DPT-HepB-Hib), Dose #2 1131 2 2 99.65
Pentavalent (DPT-HepB-Hib), Dose #3 1127 7 1 99.30
Measles 1101 28 6 97.00
Rotavirus, Dose #1 1129 5 1 99.47
Rotavirus, Dose #2 1105 13 17 97.36

Immunization Status Recall

For children without an immunization card, the respondent was asked to recall their vaccination status, with three potential responses: no vaccinations, most vaccinations, all vaccinations. Out of the 540 observations with no card, 18 (3.33%) reported the child had received no vaccinations, 212 (39.26%) reported most vaccinations, and 308 (57.04%) reported all vaccinations (2 had a missing entry).
